Mission First: How to Build a Financial Strategy Around Your Purpose with Melissa Harman
Sometimes the best business decisions have nothing to do with making more money, they start with getting clear on what you're actually building. In this episode, I'm joined by my own Fractional CFO, Melissa Harman, for a conversation that goes far beyond spreadsheets. In this episode, we talk about: Why your mission should guide every financial decision How to know when it's time to stop managing your books yourself The difference between bookkeeping and strategic CFO support The three types of business owners and which one you are Why being proactive with your finances changes everything Your numbers tell a story, but they're not the whole story.

Stop Overcomplicating Productivity & Time Management
Everyone talks about time management. But after a conversation with a room full of executive women, I realized we're asking the wrong question. In this episode, I'm sharing the biggest mindset shifts that came out of that conversation and why better productivity has less to do with finding another planner and more to do with discipline, priorities, and protecting what actually matters. In this episode, I talk about: Why time management is really a prioritization problem The hidden cost of constant notifications and interruptions My weekly planning system (and why I stopped forcing the same schedule every week) Why small changes create ripple effects in your business, career, and leadership The goal isn't to overhaul your entire routine overnight. It's to choose one thing, stay consistent for 30 days, and let that momentum build into something bigger.

AI, Motherhood & the Art of Honoring What’s Real with Krista Ripma

Trust the Timing: The Lull between the Waves
Sometimes the thing you're fighting against is actually the thing preparing you for what's next. In this episode, I'm sharing a very real look at what happened when business slowed down right as life started speeding up and why I've been learning to trust the timing instead of trying to control it. In this episode, I talk about: Why my recent season of "waiting" turned out to be exactly what I needed The surfing analogy that completely shifted my perspective The surprising lesson I've been learning around devotion If you're in a season where things feel delayed, uncertain, or slower than you'd like, this conversation is your reminder that not everything is meant to happen on your timeline.

What My 29th Year Taught Me: Three Lessons & Trust
In this episode, I’m reflecting on my 29th year around the sun. From building a six-figure business… to buying a home… to becoming a mom… this year stretched me, cracked me open, and changed the way I see myself completely. And honestly? Some of the biggest lessons came from the moments I didn’t plan for, the shifts I would’ve never predicted one year ago. I dive into the three biggest lessons from this past year (plus one bonus lesson that’s been hitting hard lately). We talk about: Why “never” is a dangerous word Simplifying my business and getting clear on what actually matters What it means to truly trust the timing of your life Why I finally started owning the fact that I run two businesses When you dive into personal development, you truly never know how your life will change. This year is proof again. When you do the work, many things can shift…. Slowly or all at one time. Resources: Connect on Instagram – @cat.roten Prefer Video?- Checkout our Youtube channel

What Actually Is Masterminding & Why Are Many Completely Missing This
Masterminding has become one of the biggest pillars of my business, but probably not in the way most people think about it. In this episode, I’m sharing what masterminding actually means to me, why I believe it’s so powerful, and how it creates real transformation when done intentionally. In this episode, I talk about: What masterminding truly is (and what it’s not) The difference between workshops, coaching, & true mastermind experiences The framework I’ve built to help people leave with clarity and action How I’m bringing mastermind facilitation into immersions, events, and communities Sometimes the breakthrough isn’t another strategy. Sometimes it’s finally having space to be seen, supported, challenged, and poured into by people who truly get it.
